Surgeon Testimonial

Jon L. Schram, M.D., F.A.C.S.
Dr. Schram seemed like a nice man. My time with him at my consult was very short. I think it is because I already know a lot about the surgery and didnt have many questions to ask him. He explained what they did during the surgery process, so that it was easy to understand. He also told me about some of the risk and death ratio. Which I'm not worried about in my situation. I have chosen BTC and Dr. Schram because I have heard alot of wonderful things about Dr. Schram and the many surgerys he has performed outside the BTC surgery.

The staff was really nice and helpful. I really like the way they handle the aftercare. I have been attending BTC meetings with my sister for the past year and feel I get a lot of good information from there.

    Well, it’s official! You’re on the losing side. The trumpets are blaring, the cymbals are crashing and the drums are drumming – all for YOU! I hope that all went well for you! You’ve been out of surgery now for a little over a month – YIPPIE!!! Your journey will have moments to “pause” – I’d like to impart some words of wisdom for when it does occur - remember these wise words whispered by Confucius – “It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.” Be patient. You didn’t put it on over night, it won’t come off over night (DARN IT!)… RNY 10/31/03 – down 87 pounds!!! Good luck!

20 Weeks preggo and were having a Boy!
posted on 3/18/08 7:23 am
Well I had an ultra sound at 13 weeks and then again at 17 weeks (4th one will be around 21-22 weeks....having more than normal due to the RNY and turning 35....err...during this pregnancy) and both ultra sounds showed that we are having a boy!  My hubby and son are quite excited over this.  I didn't have a preference either way, as I already have one of each anyways.  The baby appears healthy and normal.  I had a screening done for downs and other syndroms (spell?) and all came back with good results!  The food issues still continue to linger and I have gained around 16 pounds so far, which is totally scary.  I feel myself getting so fat.....I don't know if it's mainly weight gain in my belly or other places as well.  I do feel that I have gotten a little bigger other places as well...err.  Still trying to control the food demans.  I find myself eating so much more and things that are not good for me and I'm also eating when I'm not hungry.....just craving foods (usually sweets).  So far today I have been good and I just try to do better each day.....thats about all I can do at this point in time....to try to make each day better than the previous.

We moved into our new house about a month ago and everything is going well.  There are tons of improvements that we want to do and many things that will need to get done.  It's overwhelming to think about all we want to do and how much money it will cost and then add in there the expenses that a baby brings along and all the things we still have yet to buy for the baby.  I just pray that God will help us to achieve these things.  My hubby wants to start his own business and is doing all the required research.  I think he has a good idea on what he wants to start and I feel that it will probably do well.....but the time and market will tell.  I will post more about this later once he actually gets the business started.  We hope to have it started sometime in the fall.  Of course what he wants to build and sell will 1st be tested here at our house.  I know my hubby will have his own business.....he is motiviated, talented and mechanically and technically inclined and he won't be happy just working at an average paying job.  I just hope he makes the right business move and becomes successful with it!
